    Cutting my own lawn. Never seen landscapers growing up and I didn’t know what happened that made them so popular now.

    Also, there is only one Matrix movie

      My parents paid a company like $40 a week to have like 4 dudes come out and get their whole yard done in like 15 minutes. I can see how that would be appealing. Somehow after witnessing that they were like “Why are we paying so much for that? they were only here like 15 minutes!!” and cancelled. Now my dad spends half a day every weekend doing it himself.

          He’s got an electric push mower. Their yard isn’t that big, he’s just slow at it and honestly he could use the exercise but there’s better ways to get that than wasting half of one of the only 2 days you have off work every week.

      Well hell, I don’t have a lawn, but if that fits the category I do my own plumbing, electrical, cooking, etc. Lately I’ve been on about people who buy bags of pre-grated cheese and pre-shredded lettuce. Srsly??
